  • Title: Cutaneous protothecosis presenting as recurrent chromomycosis.
    Author: McAnally T, Parry EL.
    Journal: Arch Dermatol; 1985 Aug; 121(8):1066-9. PubMed ID: 4026348.
    Abstract:
    Chromomycosis and protothecosis are both rare cutaneous infections. We report a case in which protothecosis mimicked a relapse of chromomycosis both clinically and on special stains. The chromomycosis responded to local excision and ketoconazole therapy. The protothecosis failed to respond to ketoconazole but resolved with combined amphotericin B and tetracycline hydrochloride therapy.
